Spike Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 Jesus that was such a ride, I'm still majorly frustrated with our performance as a whole but at least we saw a bite towards the end that got us the 3 points. I don't see us getting away with that as much in future games but it shows we can create and score goals at least. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBFC II Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 FT!! Well it wasn't pretty and there's clearly a lot of work to be done, but to come back to win that speaks volumes. Millwall had won 4 of their last 5 at ours, so always good to get a win over them. Still just as many questions as answers, but that's a match we would have lost 12 months ago, fair play to Manning, the coaches and the players for picking up those three points 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KegCity Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 Need to see the goals back, and whether they were great goals or shit defending Milwall got into the box far too often. That being said, we played some excellent football at times. Bird, Twine and Earthy all look like major improvements on the side from last season, Armstrong was excellent too. Pring overlapped very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
